Your article made me return to a memoir I published (Uncercurrents) years ago after a devastating depression. Fortunately it was written

"time-wise"), and when I looked at it as a framework for spirituality, the themes you discuss were there, without the "trying".

It is hard to apply the term Rest to the fury and agitation of my own first espisode, but it has created a portal through which I move

with each subsequent episode. Thank you for such a thoughtful piece in which you let yourself be cruious about something without insulting the

suffering with simplistic and dogmatic "answers."
